Ask DocSk8 (Expert Indoor Skate Building Advice)This forum is different then the other SkateLog forums in that it is not a discussion forum, but rather a place you can ask skate building expert Fred "DocSk8" Benjamin about
building and repairing indoor speed, derby, and jamskate quad roller skates. Please start a new thread for each new
question.

Question: is the thread pitch going into the plate going to be the same as the pitch needed for the adjustment lock nut? I'd like to keep some spares around for my Invader DA45s and need to replace the ones on my husband's crappy Labaedas.

The crappy Labedas and the DA45 both use 3/8 x24 UNF nuts.

The steel ones from SG are thinner than the ones that I have on my 2 sets of ultimate 1s here and one of the sets of jamnuts are aluminum so that why I was wondering if I could find some more I will start looking.

Sorry I'm having a bit of a technical meltdown.
I need new axle nuts for Avenger Mg plates with 7mm Ti axles. only I'm not sure what I'm looking for, I can get Nylock nuts but they're sold as M5, M6 etc.

Q: is there a reason that the threads on the newer laser plates are tighter than the old plates? Both me and another skater have had trouble getting our 5/8 toe stops to easily screw into the nose of our newer plates. (or even vice versa? just seems the toe stops on lasers are harder to screw in than on other makes.)
